English

Novosadov [1.4K]1 year ago
4 0

He aids in her destruction, which is the final thing he wants, by treating her like a "case" or a "wife" rather than as a person with a free choice. The chilling conclusion of the novel makes it quite evident that John has indeed been wrecked by this enslaving relationship.

John, a prominent doctor, claims to just want what is best for his wife, but he controls every aspect of her life, including where she sleeps and with whom she spends time. The narrator of the story initially had a highly warm and admiring opinion of John. "He is very attentive and kind, and barely lets me stir without specific direction," she adds, adding, "Dear John!" She also mentions how he is always so considerate to her and how he adores her and wishes her to get better. The narrator often corrects herself by expressing what John feels after making statements on how she feels. She expresses her resentment toward John's notion that she is not ill and that everything is in her head in the phrase that follows: "John does not realize how much I actually suffer."

What clue does the narrator's repeated lament, "what can one do?' give the reader about her personality? (pg. 1) Describe other
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

This question refers to the story "The Yellow Wallpaper." In this story, we meet a woman who is sick, according to her husband. He is a doctor, and the treatment that he suggests for her is complete rest and relaxation, which eventually leads her to insanity.

When the narrator repeateadly laments "what can we do?" we get a glimpse of her passivity and the way in which she defers all decisions to her husband. Other aspects of the personality of this woman are the fact that she considers her husband to know best, even though she disagrees with the treatment and is mad at the possibility of receiving it. The woman appears to be conflicted in her emotions because she outwardly seems to really value her husband's opinion, and appears to be ready to listen to everything he says. At the same time, she appears to be mad about his behaviour and hold some resentment towards him or their marriage.
